While medical malpractice cases typically require proof of a breach of care on the part of medical providers, the circumstances of certain cases may allow for a loosened burden of proof. The doctrine of res ipsa loquitur (Latin for "the thing speaks for itself") applies in cases that, because of the underlying circumstances, are particularly difficult for plaintiffs to prove. Res ipsa loquitur typically applies to cases in which the mechanism causing the harm also results in destroyed evidence or in cases in which a breach is difficult or impossible to pinpoint.
